I'm sure it's exactly what Lindsey would have wanted

That and the twink pall bearers
And deserved
I'll fault Trump for this, because it's him and fuck him, but if I'd been able to stand up at Lindsey Graham's funeral and mock the man over his dead body I'm sure I'd sleep like a baby afterwords too.
Fucking hate Trump but hated Graham as well, and wish there was an afterlife so Graham could witness the man he betrayed America for made fun of him at his own funeral. He deserved it. Trump respects no one but himself. Far as falling asleep he is an 80 year old pedophile that stays up late at night trashing people online. I hope fucker has a stroke.
*snif*
That’s so beautiful . . .
Not gonna lie, that is me in literally every meeting I’ve ever attended. I don’t know what it is, but 5 minutes after a meeting / conference call starts, I am struggling to keep my eyes open.
I guess the difference is that I am not in charge of the nuclear weapons of the world police, so I feel less bad about my instant disengagement.
Not me. I try to be the one keeping the minutes.
You want to know why?
The person keeping the minutes controls what actually happens. Someone suggest something you don't like? Whoopsie poopsie, it missed the minutes. You have an idea everyone hated? Why did it get unanimous approval then? No one ever checks the minutes. It is the most powerful position in the company without hire fire authority.
The what
The minutes. The record of what gets said in the meeting
That's how Stalin got power.
yeah i have a dictaphone or whatever the kids call them nowadays do all my work for me dude. it's the 80s. live a little.
Hey, dont leak our secrets!
You are a technical evil genius. I love it.
I can’t sleep with any light. Sun's up? Tacos is up.
But put me in a lecture hall and have some white dude droning on? I will have a tough time keeping my eyes open immediately.
Every once in a while something he does reminds me of something I do. Luckily I always remember in time that I do not claim the right to be queen of the world so it's okay.
100 mg caffeine 15 minutes before a company meeting keeps me awake with effort for the next hour. If the speaker is boring, raise that to 200 mg.
If only he had fallen asleep... FOREVER, at the funeral.
What a sweet day that would have been
Oh, I thought you were going to tell me what a bad eugoogalizor I am.
Sleepy Don.
Seriously, though, this deranged old man should be in a care home, being told "yes my darling" by the care staff when he goes off on one of his insane racist rants or ill-informed tirades about foreign leaders or Biden, instead of being in the White House being told "yes Mr President" by people who will actually act on his nonsense on a global scale.
Care home staff would say "lets get you cleaned up, Donnie, and then you can have a lovely bath" when he poops his pants, instead of a bunch of people having to stand behind the resolute desk pretending it's not happening live on television.
